(Introduction: significance of the title) Religions are built, and developed through prior knowledge and wisdom or one's beliefs, implication of the world. Thus, hassles and persistent struggles were always conflicted due to different prospective from one another. In contrast to Waknuk, everyone was solely overruled by one religion only: last remnants of the past - recording of God's words. In addition, no one was to violate the laws that were developed based on remnants of the God's words. Therefore opposition or doubts weren’t drawn into the citizens of Waknuk. For instance, regardless of many cruel punishments pressed down onto the babies and women, no one was speculated enough to testify against the laws of a predominant society. Furthermore, punishments may be set to those that questions or judge the God’s words, ethics into viewing the world in his creation. Over sighting the civilization of Waknuk, it appears as an empty shell due to Tribulation which has wiped out most of civilization. Therefore, this sole culture was developed particularly, and entirely based on the recorded history: bible and repentance by Nicoleson.
Firstly, in the Chrysalids, adults, kids, and babies that are not certified for the regular standards are considered Blasphemy and plants, animals are considered offenses. Therefore, any type of mutation or physical defection will be acknowledged to be the mockery of God. Moreover, those that transgress such standard of being a creation of God will be punished regardless of anything.

However, these approaches of conserving the god’s ideals are only the act of egocentric, never in the God's words. Accordingly, the people of Waknuk had abused ones ideals counterfeiting the truth to God's ideal thus isolating, punishing those that are different/unique. In conclusion, the word of God is manipulated and therefore discriminations were originated, cocooning the unified community with a bias belief.
Secondly, reflecting this to our society, we all tend to struggle. Grip onto our own believes differently in comparison to others assumptions. Frequently, this causes conflicts, problems and dilemmas among our society which leads to seclusions wherefore fights, protests, and wars were created. For instance communisms, was occasionally described as a cage or the termination of freedom and should be shifted into a democracy. However one might think democracy has no distinctive goal. People on a daily basis, are also very insistent into viewing how they actually are such as optimistic or gloom. Rebounding this to the book, it applies the same principle as appose to being individual about conceits, opinions, which then leads to creations of religions, then rules, then restrictions. Therefore, the Waknuk is concealed in their own individual opinions and principles, containing its surroundings by the cocoon of restrictions
Thirdly, a cocoon of a butterfly is a set of stage in which the caterpillar must endure before transforming into a butterfly whereas Waknuk it is the stage in which no evolution was created in fulfillment to complete the final stage of a true Gods society: acceptance, multicultural, and love. Unfortunately, the society of Waknuk is stubborn and are too focused to achieving what was once the past: the world with humans only that it’s set back into the past rather than constructing a future suited for its citizens. In comparison to Zealand which was also tribulated by “God” took the role into developing and creating a better and advanced society rather than in search to restore the past and replay the course of the past. Moreover, instead of only psychological discrimination and verbal discrimination, actions were also demonstrated to punish those that are different (mutants) disallowing differences than what they perception of how the world should be. Therefore, the community of Waknuk stands and acts as a cocooned butterfly, not yet understanding the ethics and the true meaning of being a human
In conclusion, the society of Waknuk is caught in by its own cocoon like a caterpillar creating a Darkness in which no one was conscious for their action. Consequently, most citizens are agitated into believing a sole meaning of their lives: reinstating God’s world. Therefore, the people of Waknuk are insensibly performing malicious punishments to their own people or rather the mutants. In reference to the Waknuk being encompassed by a cocoon, they are also blinded because they have no future to in sight of meanwhile being contained within a cocoon until the day when they get overwhelming by the reality: truth for the tribulation. The title of John Wyndham'sThe Chrysalidsis a comparison between the life stage of a butterfly and the cocooning of Waknuk. Perhaps one day the community of Waknuk will hatch from their cocoon and fly freely like a butterfly
